Abstract

This study explored girls' sexual subjectivity as a pathway through which parental socialization influenced their emotions about past sexual experiences. A national online survey of 397 adolescent girls (M_age = 16.8 years) from diverse racial/ethnic backgrounds (33.0% Black, 25.7% Latina, 28.0% non-Hispanic White) assessed (1) parental messaging emphasizing relational, sex-positive, gendered sex role, abstinence-only, and sex-is-taboo discourses; (2) girls' sexual subjectivity including sexual body esteem, entitlement to sexual pleasure, and perceived sexual control; and (3) positive and negative emotional reactions to sexual experiences. Sexual subjectivity fully mediated the positive effect of relational messaging on positive emotional reactions and the negative effect on negative emotional reactions. Additionally, sexual subjectivity partially mediated the positive effect of gendered sex role messaging on negative emotional reactions. This study draws critical attention to placing the psychological aspects of girls' sense of their own sexuality and the emotional components of their sexual experience at the forefront of understanding the influence of parental sexual socialization on the sexual experiences of adolescent girls.

父母的性社会化、性主观性和青春期女孩对性经历的情感反应》（Parental Sexual Socialization, Sexual Subjectivity, and Emotional Responses to Sexual Experiences among Adolescent Girls）。

本研究探讨了女孩的性主观性，将其作为父母的社会化影响她们对过去性经历的情绪的途径。对来自不同种族/族裔背景（33.0% 黑人、25.7% 拉丁裔、28.0% 非西班牙裔白人）的 397 名青春期女孩（年龄 = 16.8 岁）进行了一项全国性在线调查，评估了（1）父母强调关系、性积极、性别性角色、禁欲和性是禁忌等话语的信息；（2）女孩的性主观性，包括性身体自尊、对性快乐的权利和感知到的性控制；以及（3）对性经历的积极和消极情绪反应。性主体性完全调节了关系信息对积极情绪反应的积极影响和对消极情绪反应的消极影响。此外，性主观性还部分调节了性别化性角色信息对负面情绪反应的积极影响。这项研究提请人们注意，在理解父母的性社会化对青春期女孩的性经验的影响时，应将女孩对自身性行为的心理感受及其性经验中的情感因素放在首位。
